bakerstreet | Forever in my mind, only you

an amnesiac shipping meme

You have no idea who you are.

One day, you just woke up from the darkness, confused and alone. You barely remember your own name, much less why you're here...or where here is, even. Your own body is strange to you, and if you have some kind of power or ability, that must be frightening. Perhaps you're angry at everything so new and different, lost in this strange world you don't understand or know your own place in. Maybe you feel the need to hide away, lest you be crushed by everyone out there who is sure to hurt you.

You are so, so alone.

Only you're not. There is one person, one person who's found you and taken you in. They've shown you kindness, looking after you while you can barely look out for yourself. Out of the goodness of their heart, they've shown you things, taught you things. Most importantly, they're giving you a new sense of identity. And for that, you've begun to appreciate them. More than words can say, actually. You care for them so deeply that your heart hurts around them. Is that normal? What is this feeling? You can't imagine life without them, and leaving them- That's something you could never consider. Is this lov...

The word's on the tip of your tongue, but you can't figure it out, exactly. What you can figure out is that you want to give everything you can to the person who's done so much for them. You want to stay by their side and make them happy. You want to protect them at all costs.

So no one would blame you for getting confused when you see them with someone else or getting angry when you believe they're in danger. And certainly it's only natural for you to get frustrated when you want to tell them what you think of them, what they mean to you, and you can't figure out what to do. Perhaps following instincts will do?

One thing you know is that this bond and these emotions will never go away, not even when you learn who you are.

RULES
- This meme is for examining what happens when someone with no memories, potentially someone with powers or skills that could be dangerous at the very least, develops deep feelings for the person who's taken them in or is helping them realize their past. It can be played as awkward, adventurous, tragic, cracky, fluffy, truly romantic, or anything in between. You can play at the beginning, the part where emotions have strongly developed, or even when the amnesiac has regained their memories and must now deal with new feelings.
- Reply with your character and preferences. Mention if you'd like to play the amnesiac, the caretaker/help, or both.
- The role of caretaker does not have to always be beneficial. Maybe they caused this condition in the first place so the other character would be dependent, loving, and loyal towards them.
- Reply to others and play.

[Actual amnesiac]

(OoC: If it's not too late and you don't mind an OC, would you like Marie here to take care of Robin?)

(OoC: It's definitely not too late! I wouldn't mind that scenario at all, would you like me to start or would you like to?)

(OoC; I got it! Let me know if it needs changing!)

Marie had pretty much stayed out of the conflict that seemed to rumble around her, spending her time in her lake, taking in the sights of the calm forest before her. Of course, things wouldn't be all peaceful for long.

Her day would be taking an odd turn as a silver-haired girl washed up in her lake. "Oh, no!" She gasped out, diving in to try to save her and pull her in. "Are you okay? Please, answer me!"

Sputtering water from her lungs, the woman gasped for air before doubling over and going into a coughing fit to try and get everything out. When it seemed most of it was out she was finally able to manage a choked "I'm okay." for the woman who saved her. After a few more minutes of coughing behind her wet sleeve she was finally able to speak without becoming completely choked up.

"Thank you for saving me, where exactly are we?" she asked, looking up at the woman who saved her.

"This is my home. My lake. It looks like you came downstream..." Marie said, pointing to the stream nearby. "Are you certain you're okay? Do you remember how you got here?"

The woman looked at where she pointed, face scrunching in a scrutinizing manner as she put some thought into her question. The woman took a moment to take off her coat, it wasn't hard to tell that she had been in a fight of some kind. Gingerly she touch around, when she got to her head she winced, apparently she took quite a hit from the back.

"I seem to be a little beat up, but I'll live...As for how I got here, I'm not too sure." She answered, eyes gazing off to the side in thought. Speaking of remembering...Everything was fuzzy when she tried to pull up a memory. Perhaps if she gave it time...

"It's alright. You can rest here until you're well enough." she said. "What's your name? My name's Marie."

"Thank you I appreciate it." She told the other woman, giving her a faint smile.

At her question she hesitated before finding the answer Marie wanted.

"Robin, at least I believe so...My memory is a bit fuzzy to be honest."

Hearing that Robin was feeling that her memory was fuzzy, Marie winced a bit. That's not good at all.

"Oh, dear. I think you'll need some rest." she said. "If you want, I can carry you to where I live..."

"Hold on, let me see if I can walk first." Robin told her before trying to get onto her feet. Carefully positioning herself, she eased herself into a standing position with wet coat in hand. Her first step was a bit wobbly but the rest seemed fine. She only felt sore from whatever happened to her, she could push through it.

"Where is it that you live?"

"Here, I'll show you." Marie said. With that, she lead her to a cave which had been modified to have a house front. Inside were simple and easy amenities that would help both girls relax.

"Why don't you lay down, hm?" She asked, gesturing to the bed nearby.

The young woman followed the other easily enough, rubbing out where she felt aches or pains in her sides and back. When entering she took a good look around, noticing while simple, did feel very much like a home. Robin looked at the bed offered, while laying down was indeed tempting, there was a small problem with that.

"I really don't want to soak your bed through with my clothes." Robin admitted sheepishly, very much still drenched from head to toe.

Oh, dear. That would be a problem. Marie did have an idea, but...

"If you are okay with it, I can switch you into some dry clothes. They may just fit you." She offered. "Of course, you'll have to..." she blushed at that. Yes, they were girls, but there was always the case of privacy. She didn't want to seem like a pervert.

"Only if that's okay. If you don't have anything to spare it's not like these won't eventually dry." She said, looking worried over asking too much from her host.

"Robin, my dear, you are hurt and need help. I am more than okay with that." Marie said. Cautiously, she reached over to help work Robin's wet clothes off...

A somewhat confused noise came from the other woman as the other tugged on her clothes. She allowed her to help and soon found herself undressed. She wrapped her arms around her chest, feeling a bit chilled from the water.

"Thanks, I appreciate it."

With a nod, she went to give Robin a towel to dry off and cover herself.

"Let me get you something to wear..." she said, heading towards a shelf to get the items.

Gratefully she accepted, feeling better after finally being mostly dry. She took down her hair and rang all the water she could into the towel before finally feeling less chilled.

"So how long have you lived out here if you don't mind me asking?"

"For a few years now." Marie admitted. "I don't know why, but I really enjoy the peacefulness of the forest and the lake."

She grinned sheepishly as she added, "Do you think it's odd?"

As she said that, she gave Robin a fresh change of clothes.

Robin put them on quickly.

"I don't, this seems like a very nice place to reside in."

The woman then sat on the bed, looking exhausted as she felt.

"Thank you again for taking me in."

"You're welcome. My house is now yours, too." Marie said. "Do you need anything else?"

Robin flopped over, curling into a ball after.

"No thank you." She said, stifling a yawn before closing her eyes.

Forever in my mind, only you
